City College of San Francisco's Uncertain Future and the Anderson Art Collection to Open at StanfordCity College of San Francisco's Uncertain Future
The fate of City College of San Francisco and its 77,000 students continues to hang in the balance. Faculty and students descended on Sacramento Friday to protest at a meeting of the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges. That's the body that will strip CCSF of its accreditation on July 31 if it does not extend the deadline. The ACCJC maintains that federal law prohibits it from granting an extension. Several politicians, including Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, have spoken out to defend CCSF and urge the commission to give California's largest community college more time to fully comply with accreditation standards. The commissioners say that City College fell far short of meeting 100 percent compliance when an evaluation team last checked, in spring 2013.

Anderson Art Collection to Open at Stanford
A new Bay Area art museum will open its doors this fall at Stanford University. The Anderson Collection at Stanford will showcase some of the 20th century's most prominent and provocative American post-war greats, like Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko, along with modern California masters like Wayne Thiebaud and Richard Diebenkorn. The works are a gift from Bay Area collectors Harry and Mary Anderson — known to most people as "Hunk" and "Moo." Thuy Vu visited the Andersons in their Bay Area home to see what it's like to live in house full of masterpieces — and why they are sharing the core of their acclaimed collection with the public.duration 27:46

Nature

My Bionic PetThe animals of the world may increasingly need our help with big issues like preserving their habitat or species conservation. But sometimes individual animals need our help as well. Left disabled without fins, flippers, beaks, or tails because of disease, accidents, or even human cruelty, these unfortunate creatures need what amounts to a miracle if they are to survive. Luckily for them, sometimes miracles do happen. Amazing prosthetics made possible by the latest engineering and technology are able to provide just what they need, and scientists are finding that innovations created in the process are benefitting both animals and humans. We will meet these inspiring animals and the remarkable individuals whose work has helped them live their lives again.duration 56:46

Suze Orman's Financial Solutions for YouWe all have financial issues and problems. Suze Orman's latest special sharply focuses on her helping individual viewers "find financial solutions for you." As always, Suze's advice is based not just on numbers, but on a critical understanding of ourselves and our emotional needs. The special's central theme is that our financial decision-making should be guided by an understanding of "the goal of money." As Suze perceptively defines it: "The goal of money is to make you feel secure." Our financial solutions should work to fulfill that goal. In addition, Suze stresses the importance of making financial decisions that you feel comfortable with. Financial problems are caused when you do things with money that do not seem "right" to you, despite pressures and advice from others.duration 1:57:06
